Integrating Design and Manufacturing for Competitive Advantage

No customer reviews yet ISBN 9780195063332

With more emphasis being placed on the cost and quality of new products and on reducing the lead time to develop them, attention is turning to the increasingly important topic of design for manufacturing (DFM). This involves the collaboration among research and development, manufacturing, and other company functions and is aimed at accelerating the new product development process from product conception to market introduction. A company can create a competitive advantage for itself by managing the process and its related organizational dynamics effectively. This collection of essays focuses on the development of strategic capabilities through use of DFM tools and practices, the role of DFM in specific product development phases, and the social, political, and cultural context within which DFM is introduced.

Turning the Flywheel: A Monograph to Accompany Good to Great
<p><strong>A companion guidebook to the number-one bestselling <em>Good to Great</em>, focused on implementation of the flywheel concept, one of Jim Collins' most memorable ideas that has been used across industries and the social sectors, and with startups.</strong></p><p>The key to business success is not a single innovation or one plan.
